Chapter 389: Not arrogant, not cowardly

"Brother to the emperor to say goodbye." Hongyang saluted the emperor respectfully, and before the emperor's permission, he only maintained his current movements, and did not move at all.

Honglibai glanced at him, and the smile slowly fell into his eyes: "On a whim, I let you turn back again." It was enough for you to work in the paddock, but I found a leopard in this valley. I don't know if you are interested in accompanying me to hunt here? ”

"The royal brother is interested, so the younger brother will accompany him." Hongtian had a friendly smile on his face, as if he couldn't see the superfluous look in the emperor's eyes. "It's just that my brother is lazy, and he hasn't practiced riding and archery for a long time, and I'm afraid that it's easy to get on a horse, but it's difficult to draw a bow. It's okay to provoke the emperor's brother to laugh, if he lets the minions under his hands see it, it will have to be passed on as a joke. ”

"Not really." The streamer in Hongli's eyes turned slightly hotter, and the smile reappeared on his handsome face: "It's just a riding and shooting competition, and if you can hunt leopards, you will naturally be the winner, if you only get three or two pheasants and hares, it doesn't hurt." It's time to warm up. Isn't there a better prize in the paddock? ”

Hongli clasped his hands into fists and said respectfully: "Brother obeys." ”

Gao Lingxi served hot tea to Bi Lan coldly: "As soon as the emperor's cheetah goes, he will go over the mountains and mountains and walk for a while, it is better to drink tea to moisten his throat first, and then it is not too late to set off." The concubines also prepared a cowhide bag, which was clean drinking water, and the emperor could take it with him. ”

"It's still Ling Xi who thinks thoughtfully." Hongli smiled gently, with affection in his eyes.

Such a gaze is particularly unpleasant in Hongday's view. In the fifth year of Yongzheng, on the eighteenth day of July, on the day when he married Lan Xin in the second institute in the west of the Forbidden City, Hongli saw Hongli's gaze. has the same affection, but now it is facing others, this feeling makes Hongyang almost crazy, he doesn't like her, why do you want to marry her by his side?

Suddenly, I wanted to ask him why the original affection had been forgotten now. But Hongtian didn't know what kind of identity he should use, so he only lowered his head and smiled: "The emperor's brother is not shallow." The younger brother remembered that in order not to forget the true colors of Manchuria, the imperial sister-in-law sewed a flint made of deer tail fluff thread, which the imperial brother liked very much and often carried it on his body. Now there is a cowhide water bag made by Concubine Hui herself, isn't it to envy others? ”

Gao Lingxi didn't know what kind of past he had with the prince and the queen, but his cheeks turned into scarlet, and he smiled coquettishly: "Let me laugh with the prince, it's just a little clumsiness on the part of the concubine." ”

Hongyang said indifferently: "I'm afraid that it is the heart of the noble concubine that can touch the heart of the imperial brother the most." Otherwise, Mulan Qiuqiuyuan is the most physically demanding, but he also has to take the concubine with him regardless of the fatigue of the journey. A quasi-child is not seen for a day, as if every other autumn, lovesickness is unbearable. ”

Hongli echoed and laughed twice, and then said: "These children's words are long, and it is not too late to talk slowly after hunting back the leopard." Hongday, have you ever been ready? ”

"If you go back to the emperor, Hongyang is ready." There was a heroic spirit between the eyebrows: "Whether it is the imperial brother who hunts the leopard, or the younger brother who hunts the leopard, how about giving the peeled leopard flower skin to Concubine Hui to enjoy?" ”

"Okay." Hongli should be hearty. "When the sun sets, if there are no leopards, let whoever hunts the most wild beasts win."

"It's all up to the emperor." Hongtian was not timid at all, but met the emperor's gaze.

"Let's go." As soon as Hongli gave the order, he stepped on the war horse, waved his long whip majestically, sat firmly on the horse's back and galloped away.

Hongtian also stepped on the horse's back, and looked back at Concubine Hui who was standing in the wind, and couldn't help but feel a little cold. Concubine Hui is indeed beautiful and moving, and she adds a woman's charm and gentleness to Lan Xin, and she is the most touching and smart. With her, there are also pure concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, and concubines...... Three thousand fandels, how much sincerity does the emperor have left for Lan Xin?

Once upon a time, Hongtian really thought that the emperor and Lan Xin were in harmony, and in the future, the elder brother born by Lan Xin would be the crown prince, and he would finally be worthy of Lan Xin's stay in this life. But after seeing Concubine Chun that night and hearing Concubine Chun say a lot of things that shouldn't have happened, Hongtian realized that Lan Xin's life had been terrifying, and there was nothing happy at all.

So the peace she tried her best to disguise was to reassure him? Hongday listened to the whirring wind in his ears, and looked at the emperor in front of him, and his heart became even more chaotic. Why did he take away all the good things, and why did he not know how to cherish them after he took them?

There was only one thought that crossed his mind, and that was to replace him......

Not only for the Qing Dynasty, but also for her!

Hongday's eyes burst out with a terrifying killing intent, but it was just right to hide in the eyes of eager search for prey. Even if Hongli turns back from time to time, it is because he doesn't want to lose. But in fact, Hongli had already regarded Hongli as the prey under his bowstring arrows.

"Brother Huang, the road forks here, do you want to go left or right?" Hongyu caught up with Hongli and asked peacefully.

The terrain here is not familiar, so he glanced at it casually and said, "If I go to the right, you will go to the left." Remember, before sunset, whether or not you hunt leopards, you must return to the tent and win the battle. ”

"Brother obeys." Hongyang smiled slightly, and jumped out before the emperor.

Fu Heng walked around the tent several times, but he never saw the emperor's figure, he was on duty all night last night, and it was already noon when he woke up. But he never saw the emperor, and he was always at ease. "The concubine Niangniang is blessed with Jin'an."

Gao Lingxi was preparing lunch, and when she saw that Fu Heng was coming, her smile was a little gentle: "Why don't you sleep for a while, didn't you just take the night duty yesterday?" ”

"Thank you for your concern." Fu Heng smiled indifferently, and then asked, "Why didn't you see the emperor's figure?" ”

"Don't worry, my lord, the emperor and Prince He went out hunting, and they have been there for most of the day. It was agreed that he would return to the camp before sunset, and the palace estimated that there was still half a day's work. This will make things less, and adults can make up for sleep. ”

I muttered in my heart: "The emperor and Prince He went to cheetah?" Fu Heng looked around: "Why don't you have the imperial guards with you?" ”

When he asked, Gao Lingxi also felt that something was wrong: "Xu is that the emperor and the prince are good at kung fu, and they are cheetahs in the nearby mountains, so they didn't ask anyone to accompany them." Do adults think there's something wrong? ”

Fu Heng didn't have the heart to explain in detail with the concubine, but said, "The slave will go and take a look." With that, he ran a few paces, and took a horse nearby, and one jumped on the horse's back, flicked the reins, and shouted "drive" in his mouth, and then ran out with the man and the horse.

Gao Lingxi looked at his momentum, and was a little stunned: "Bilan, hurry, let's go too." ”

Bi Lan panicked: "Niangniang, what are we going to do, the emperor and the prince are going to hunt leopards." What if we meet us on the way? ”

"I can't care about this, this palace just wants to know why Fu Heng heard that the emperor went out alone with Prince He to hunt leopards, and his face became so ugly. Is it with the Prince...... Bad intentions? This palace can't let the emperor be in danger, you go to Li Yu immediately, and ask him to order the imperial guards to look around. With the Imperial Guards, it doesn't matter if you encounter a leopard. Gao Lingxi's bowels were blue: "Why didn't I think of this layer, why did I let the emperor go alone?" ”

Li Yu listened to Concubine Hui's instructions, and hurriedly rushed over: "Niangniang forgive your sins, the emperor issued a strict decree early this morning, not allowing the imperial guards to follow." The slave does not want to go against your will, but if the imperial guards follow him privately, the emperor will definitely be responsible. The emperor simply went out with the prince, presumably there would be no danger, and the mother should be a little restless, and wait for the deputy head of the imperial guard to send back the news, and then make a decision. ”

On weekdays, Gao Lingxi is also soft-spoken, and he will not really get angry with the people below. But at this moment, she was very panicked, and her tone couldn't help but be harsh: "What do you know, when Fu Heng can't find the emperor's letter, I'm afraid it's too late." You take care of yourself and let the imperial guards find it, if the emperor blames, the palace will bear it. ”

"Guifei Niangniang, this ......" Li Yu didn't dare to make the decision without permission, so she couldn't do it: "Niangniang doesn't know, just because the emperor ordered it, it must wait for him to hunt the leopard, and the beautiful Prince Yinghe is willing to send someone to welcome the prince." If there are royal guards who act without permission, it will be meaningless to lose the fairness of this game. The minions are also worried that the emperor is hunting alone, but since the emperor has explained in advance, how can the minions not listen. ”

Gao Lingxi sighed heavily: "Father-in-law, I beg you in this palace." In this way, you should think that the palace is going to see the emperor hunting, and if you don't worry about the safety of the palace, you will let more than a dozen people follow the palace. If the emperor asks, the palace will naturally say that the imperial guard is to protect the safety of the palace, not to go to the ordinary emperor to help the emperor shoot wild leopards, so it's okay, right? ”

Li Yu is not worried about the emperor's safety, not to mention that the concubine begged like this, he couldn't not give no face at all: "The slave obeys the order." ”

Bi Lan held the concubine's hand tightly and said with relief: "Don't worry, Niangniang, this is just because Lord Fucha is too nervous." The emperor has his own natural appearance, and he will definitely be fine. ”

Gao Lingxi nodded: "I hope so, if there is anything wrong with the emperor, then this palace will definitely live and die, and will never survive." ”

"Niangniang, don't say these unlucky words." Bi Lan's eyes were hot, and she couldn't help but feel sour: "The emperor will be fine, don't think about these unfortunate things." ”

"This palace is just telling what is in his heart." Gao Lingxi closed his eyes gently, and in a moment, Li Yu had already led the horse. "Let's go, Bilan, we must find the emperor before the sun sets. I hope this bad premonition is just an illusion of this palace. ”
